i'm sure the romney people will be happy to hear he's going to vote for him. >> when we talk about the number of ads, we have not mentioned campaign spending and the influence of superpacs this year. so as we close out here, is the story yet written on how much influence they actually have been having on voters to this point? >> you know, i think the superpac phenomenal is one that we're going to be looking at -- phenomenon is one that we're going to be looking at closely to see how it affected things and how it contributed to unprecedented amounts of money. we have never had so much money spent on a campaign as we've seen this year. there may be a point of diminishing returns, maybe there's a point where ads just don't have the impact that they might because people have seen so many of them. but the fact that there have been so many ads, that they've been so sfwens in the swing states, and that they've been so negative. it's really just a tiny fraction of the tv ads that have been aired that make a positive message about either candidate. we're going to -- obviously this is going to h

in that debate, romney put a lot of substance on the table. that is what i think the voters have been looking for. something to give them an explanation on why it is more. dagen: you talk about the substance, but how the president is communicating at this point and how his campaign is communicating. the use of the word liar by the campaign, in a debate you start to have to have a conversation with another person and with the american people are says just talking at someone thought he has had the luxury of doing that for four years. >> they came out of that debate, three major figures including his major advisors saying mitt romney is a liar about his tax plan. i do not think the american people are sitting out there waiting to have the president of the united states campaign saying that the republican nominee is a liar. barack obama at this point has the ability to debate somebody on substance. he has not done that very often through his presidency. connell: see you next week. thank you, dan. dagen: if only we could see you every week. connell
